Eastern Connecticut State University engages students from diverse backgrounds in a transformative, liberal arts learning experience that provides knowledge and skills to lead enriching, purposeful lives.
Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
We resolve, between now [2015] and 2030, to end poverty and hunger everywhere; to combat inequalities within and among countries; to build peaceful, just and inclusive societies; to protect human rights and promote gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls; and to ensure the lasting protection of the planet and its natural resources. We resolve also to create conditions for sustainable, inclusive and sustained economic growth, shared prosperity and decent work for all, taking into account different levels of national development and capacities.
At Eastern, students will find the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) integrated in their coursework, in their campus and community involvement, and in the operations of the university. Through Education for the Goals, we empower students with the knowledge and skills required to solve our most pressing challenges.
